Abstract:
The performance evaluation of the Arjo Diddessa sprinkler irrigation system is required
for determining whether the overall system address the objectives stated at the time of the
systems established in which the aim this study were to evaluate the performance of the
infield sprinkler irrigation system using the Water Productivity through Open access of
remotely sensed derived dataset technique and field experiment in current condition. With
these ground catch cans were used to collect water depth used to determine the indicators
like Uniformity, adequacy, system uniformity, application efficiency in the field
experiment, and equity, uniformity and adequacy for Quantum Geographic Information
System with WA plugin was combined with Water Productivity through Open access of
remotely sensed derived data for remote sensing. Based on field experiment, the average
actual values for distribution uniformity, coefficient uniformity, system uniformity
coefficient, system distribution uniformity,, application efficiency and adequacy were
58%, 69%, 52%, 23%, 15%, and 37%, respectively, at.3,4,4.5, and 5 bars at the sprinkler
spacing of 18 m x 18 m. Additionally, Equity, uniformity, and adequacy were 34%, 66%
and 58%, respectively, according to the value obtain from Water Productivity through
Open access of remotely sensed derived data in a chosen location. Overall, the results of
this study showed that the problems of design and implementation, the poor management and
maintenance were the reasons for the low performance of sprinkler systems as per the values
obtain from both approaches which fell outside of an acceptable range resulting in
reduced sugar cane yield output at the Arjo Diddessa sugar factory due to the system's
limited ability to function at the needed level
